Shinedown is one of my all time favorite bands. They've been writing about mental health for almost a decade now, and before the current members joined, Brent wrote most of the songs himself about dealing with depression and his drug addiction. Their songs Save Me, Lost in The Crowd, Call Me, Sound of Madness, Monsters, Devil, Get Up are some of my favorites. They're really awesome people too. I've met them several times and they always listened to my stories about what their music meant to me and just welcomed me with open arms when I really needed it.

The way he sings “how bout you” is angelic. Gives me goosebumps.

Any Shinedown song is great. My all time favorite ban since they started. They definitely need to be part of the rock and roll hall of fame!

Shinedown has been my favorite band for over 20 years. You should go back to their earlier stuff, and enjoy the journey through their catalog.

This song has given them 30 straight Top Ten SINGLES 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This band is my therapy… they have kept me from the edge

Thanks Nick. I have long been a Shinedown fan and especially Brent Smith (lead singer) after hearing him in an interview with a vocal coach where he said one of his main influences as a vocalist was Chris Cornell. He teared up talking about that and it only made me like and respect him and the band even more as Cornell is my GOAT.

the entire Plant Zero album is worth a listen

Brent has 1 of my favorite male voices!! This whole album is amazing! I got to see them live last month, and they put on 1 hell of a show!

Shinedown is by far my favorite band from their craziness with sound of madness to their gentle sound of this song is just an all around fantastic band to listen to

They have so many great songs! I've met them a few times while shooting photos of their shows and meet & greet photos. (I'm a photographer for a radio station) super cool guys 🤘

I like how most people are like... I dont think this band is for me until they hear Brent's voice.

I don't know if you see comments on year old videos... but they just released a live version of this song and it's amazing. Hits me in the feels even more than this one.

Plenty of other great Shinedown songs to go along with this one as well.

Shinedown is one of my all time fav bands...they are totally a rabbit hole to go down...just start at their beginning...watch the evolution!!...❤❤❤❤❤

I'm not surprised that you liked his voice since you loved their cover of Simple Man. They are so awesome live....you have to treat yourself to that experience!

Brent has one of the best voices in rock. Adam isn’t even close to his ability

I just saw them 3 days ago and you could feel the emotion when they played this song. I've been listening for 20 years since their first album came out. I'm bipolar and have anxiety attacks and in concert Brent Smith always makes a point of telling everyone not to be ashamed and it just sparks something when afterward they play this

Yea it is and this tour they had 1 dollar off every ticket go to AFSP and when one arena sold out has 15,000 seats they have raised 150,000 dollars and they were not finished with that tour yet

"The walls are melting too..." first time I heard this song it was goosebumps.

I was lucky enough to see them in 2017 at a small venue in Michigan. It was very laid back & the entire band enjoyed themselves.

You should try Sound of Madness, Monsters, and Second Chance by Shinedown. Great voice. Great Songs.

Brent is one of the best male singers of our time. Shinedown is f’n amazing and I’m a hardcore metal fan. 🤘🏻

Yes it was there intent behind the song there a great group been out since the 2002, there big with the mental health awareness

Oh my dear Lord, this song ….

Yes it’s about mental health. It’s the follow up to Dead ☠️ Don’t Die you reacted to already. Came out yesterday. They been recognized by the mental health association. So you were spot on. Off the album Planet 🌎 Zero. Everything that’s been happening since 2020. 🔥🔥🔥

This song resignates with my life I get emotional listening to it the demons we fight everyday with just trying to get by with life it fits me completely.

One of my other favs is "State of my Head" my fav part of the song is about 3/4 in..."can you hear me now.... " gets me everytime!!!

love shinedown! seen them twice live, awesome shows

Shinedown is my favorite! Their other work is just as profound. I'm glad you've now been introduced to them!

Awesome band! Hits my emotions!

Funny this comes up. Just finished listening to a live version of simple man. God damn he has a powerful voice. Very underrated.

I love this song. I fully expected more thoughts on the deep lyrics. “Slightly awkward, kinda weird” smacks me so hard every time. And not belonging is a vibe we all get. The voice is so smooth and enjoyable. Good reaction (minus the phone silencing part).

Oh please check out more Shinedown! They are amazing and thoughtful and freaking talented!

CANNOT compare Brent Smith to Adam Levine. Please don’t!! Brent is an amazing vocalist.

Favorite of this past summer. Lyrics are excellent!

You have to check out their song - Daylight.

Thank you for what your doing. ❤❤❤

My guy said, "I'll join ya I guess." That's what I'm talking about! Hope to see ya there my dude, and everyone else coming too!

They have a huge Catalog, you check them, they have been making music for over 20 years

Brent's voice in this song reminds me of the lead singer of the band Train.

My man can sing. You and him

Personally, he sounds like the lead singer of Train. IMO they are trying to spread the word that things go wrong in life, and we all feel bad at times.....but it's all part of being human.

I just found your channel tonight. You have a lovely tone to your voice. You should listen to shindowns daylight. It’s awesome to.

It’s great to see a persons reaction to something they have heard for the 1st time. I think you may of had a small teardrop coming out after you realized it was about mental health issues. I’ve never watched you before I’ll start though. I have been a Brent Smith fan since 2001. I see others have said you should go back, watch, & listen to some of his old stuff. I agree then you will see why the other comments of you comparing him to Avril Lavigne was a bad idea. Brent 100% has his own voice & shouldn’t be compared to any one else.

Thanks bro, I hopped that someone react to Shinedown n u did! By the way, hi from France!

love

It's a brilliant song; the lyrics slay me. NOW...listen to Leave A Light On by Papa Roach. 😭

Mental Illness makes you feel apart, this group lets you know you are NOT ALONE!

I've always heard Elton John in Brent Smith's voice.

We all do have a WILD side! Are we all in need of being human?

How do I say goodbye 😭😭😭😭💔

Hey fam. Great reaction my man. You don't have to make the videos transparent. At least I haven't on any of mine.

Thanks!

You did simple man

No disrespect meant but No no no not Adam Levine 😮 Brent’s voice is all Brent

Still waiting on my invitation to the balls.....

I KNOW!!! You did NOT compare Brent Smith with Adam Lavene (idk know if that is how his name is spelled and I don’t care) And YES!! Shinedown are big mental health advocates!! This next tour they are donating a dollar from every ticket to mental health awareness! Brent Smith has been through and lived through a lot and it helps us all who are there. Brent Smith is THE MAN!! ( “man” is not a term I use lightly)

U diffently need to check out get up by shinedown

Shinedown is absolutely amazing!!!!

Ice Nine Kills - Farewell II Flesh

Listen to his story on his friend locked in room almost killing himself bro it will get u

You should listen to his earlier music he writes awesome shit

Sounds alittle like train.

You've always been slightly awkward, kinda weird Upside down and not all here What's a-wrong with me and you is crystal clear To me, the above is about that feeling of never quite fitting in. The feeling that the people around you don't really "get" you. And maybe don't really try that hard. Sometimes I'm in a room where I don't belong And the house is on fire and there's no alarm And the walls are melting too And this part sounds very much like a panic attack feels. That moment of "too much" that takes you from anxious into full-blown, make-it-stop terror.
